Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaWhen DS Lott tells Morse that he knows Morse spent three years at Lonsdale (college) and then threw in the towel before his finals, it is only half the story. In The Last Enemy (1989), it is revealed that Morse had to leave Lonsdale College when his grant was stopped and he could not fund himself.
- GoofsWhen DC McLeash comes into Morse's room to invite him for a drink, he switches Morse's record-player off at the mains switch to get his attention. When McLeash has finished talking to Morse, he switches it back on again and it carries on playing immediately, exactly where it left off. This would not happen with a record-player. At the very least the pitch would increase as the record got up to speed; in addition, if it was a valve rather than transistor amplifier there would be a delay while the valve filaments warmed up again.
- Quotes
[Morse meets Max DeBryn, the pathologist, examining a body on a river bank]
DC Endeavour Morse: Morning.
Dr. Max DeBryn: Not for this poor sod. You are whom?
DC Endeavour Morse: Morse. Detective Constable. On attachment from Newtown. You're the pathologist, I presume.
Dr. Max DeBryn: [jovially] Better hope so, hadn't you. Otherwise I'm making one hell of a mess of your scene of crime. Max DeBryn.
[DeBryn offers his hand for Morse to shake it, then withdraws it as Morse hesitates because he sees the blood on DeBryn's glove]
DC Endeavour Morse: Is it a scene of crime? Initial reports suggested suicide.
Dr. Max DeBryn: Looks to be. Single entry wound on the right temple. Typical starburst gunpowder pattern on the skin surrounding the wound together with contact scorching would suggest the weapon was discharged at point-blank range. As you can see.
[Morse looks away in disgust]
DC Endeavour Morse: I'll take your word for it.
Dr. Max DeBryn: Squeamish, are we? You won't make much of a detective if you're not prepared to look death in the eye.
- Crazy creditsIn the end credits of the PBS Masterpiece Mystery! broadcast (though not the original ITV broadcast), some letters are shown in red... these spell out L-O-N-S-D-A-L-E, the name of a fictional Oxford college associated with Morse.
